12/28 GDT: Red Wings 0 at Blue Jackets 1 (OT)

[redwingfan19 293]

brad may is awesome. He know what he is talking about. I think he would make a good coach one day

[Yzermania 156]

I keep hearing what sounds like shots off the goal posts, but I know it's not.

Is that the metal part of the sticks banging together?

that's been driving me crazy, I can't figure out what it is. I don't know if mason keeps hitting his post or something to get back in position or what, it seems its whenever the puck leaves the jackets zone. The audio is way TOO high for the on ice audio.

[55fan 5,133]

I know this may shock some, but why do you hate fighting? It 100% belongs in this game.

I can't speak for Sandy, but my mom doesn't like fighting either. She's afraid the guys will get hurt. Hey, she's almost 70 and raised all girls, but she loves hockey.

And she raised a fight-freak daughter. Go figure.

What I like about May - his fights aren't useless... and let's be honest, he CAN play... too bad he's 37...

f***, I thought about asking about that but figured I was the only one. Maybe I haven't had too much to drink.

good paced period,

good (appropriate, timely) fight by may.

detroit looks a little more urgent than they have lately.

I can't argue the fact that it's part of the game. I know it is. But I don't have to like it. And honestly, sometimes my reactions to it scare me. (There's gotta be better ways for me to vent!) The goals and the play toward getting the goals should be and is the most important part of the game. Like I've said before, I fell back in love with the Wings when the Russian Five were playing. 'Nuff said.

However, between you and me, I hope somebody beats the s*** out of Boll and Torres. And like Boll, who would want to be known mainly as a goon and/or a thug? Doesn't say crap about his "game".

Nah, I've been hearing it too.

i kept hearing it too. it seemed to happen as the puck was carried over columbus' blue line.

Not a great 1st period, how bad is our PP?

Did anyone else notice Ritola's great stickhandling just before May dropped the gloves? Very impressive, was about to set up a qaulity scoring chance.

[Marty Barry 230]

Nah, I've been hearing it too.

Mass Tinitus?

No argument, but (and don't take this the wrong way) that doesn't mean fighting doesn't have its place. It most certainly does.

A team is getting beat on all ends of the game and a fight can be (and usually is) enough to spark the team.

[uk_redwing 495]

I missed a fight? Meh. Damn slow internet.

[Vladifan 680]

Actually, you pretty much did speak for me. Speaking of that, there's Lijia. That breaks my heart. And there are guys who will never play again because of too many concussions.

as always, GREAT post!!!

[uk_redwing 495]

Lets do the slap chop right there...

One of the better fights from May this season

[NeverForgetMac25 483]

Nah, something has to be messed up within the feed. Still, if you have DirecTV (as I do) it's better than nothing.

[sputman 1,268]

too bad he's 37...

seriously.

Again, no argument. I'm one of those who think that the (March?) '97 fight had a lot to do with the Wings turning it around. If it works for them and nobody gets killed, it must work!

[Vladifan 680]

Nah, I've been hearing it too.

I heard it in this game and an earlier game - maybe with the Jackets. Shoulda mentioned it then, methinks.

[yzefan 2]

Anyone know whats goin on with the live feed at justin?? not like ***** to not have it going.. anyone heard anything???

[canadian wings fan 305]
